The ‘Vette shown here is fit with factory air conditioning (only 278 came with that amenity in 1963), an AM/FM radio, and tinted windows.

This was the only model year to feature the split rear window.

Nearly 118,000 Corvettes were built during the golden age of sports cars that encompassed the C2 series of the model line.

The 1963 model year was also the first to offer a coupe; earlier Corvettes were two-seat convertibles. It was also the first ’Vette with independent rear suspension.

To get behind the wheel in a well-sorted Corvette C2 is one of the great pleasures of classic-car life.
